As part of that work, we're standing up a dedicated Travel & Expense (T&E) function and are looking for a Senior Expense Specialist responsible for maturing the current processes and day-to-day operational excellence.\nWhat You'll Do:\nAudit, Compliance & Risk\nOwn expense audit end-to-end\n\nBuild and maintain the SOX-ready control environment for T&E, including documentation, testing support, and sign-off readiness.\n\nTrack and reduce policy non-compliance, turning an untracked risk into a measured, managed one.\n\nGlobal Policy & Program Ownership\nEnforce one global, regionally compliant T&E policy - including EOR employees - to reduce local tax and audit exposure.\n\nCentrally administer and optimize the ClickHouse Expense tool, Corporate Card program and system integrations to the HRIS and ERP systems.\n\nReimbursement & Employee Experience\nCut international reimbursement cycle time from ~30 days to ~7 through automated routing and clear SLAs.\n\nReduce the time employees spend per claim through better tooling, clearer policy, and self-service support.\n\nBe the primary point of contact for T&E questions, escalations, and edge cases - approval flow issues, policy setup, and offboarding coordination with the People team\n\nReporting, Enablement & Change Management\nBuild spend dashboards, KPI tracking, and executive reporting where none exists today.\n\nDeliver role-based training and a global T&E champion network, and lead structured change management (ADKAR or similar) to drive adoption of new policy and tools.\n\nPartner with Accounting to complete the handoff of remaining T&E responsibilities.\n\nWhat You Bring Along:\n4+ years of experience in travel & expense, accounts payable, or finance operations, ideally at a high-growth or Cloud software company with a distributed, multi-entity employee base.\n\nHands-on ownership of Expensify, Ramp (or a comparable card/expense platform), and NetSuite integrations - you know what breaks in these systems and how to fix it at the root, not just route the ticket.\n\nWorking knowledge of SOX controls and audit readiness for expense and card programs; experience building or maintaining automated fraud detection a plus.\n\nComfort designing policy for a global, multi-entity, multi-employment-type workforce (FTE and EOR, including platforms like Deel), and translating that policy into system configuration.\n\nA track record of building reporting and KPI visibility from scratch - you don't wait for a dashboard to be handed to you, you build it.\n\nExperience running training and change management for a process or tool rollout (ADKAR or similar frameworks a plus).\n\nOwnership mentality: you see a broken process and fix the root cause, not just the ticket in front of you.\n\nIndependence: you troubleshoot issues, ask clarifying questions, and propose solutions rather than escalating every ambiguity.\n\nCuriosity: you ask why a process exists before you automate it, and you're a lifelong learner when it comes to new systems.\n\nFollow-through: you see initiatives through to full adoption, not just launch.\n\nPerks\nFlexible work environment - ClickHouse is a globally distributed company and remote-friendly. We currently operate in over 25 countries.\n\nHealthcare - Employer contributions towards your healthcare.\n\nEquity in the company - Every new team member who joins our company receives stock options.\n\nTime off - Flexible time off in the US, generous entitlement in other countries.\n\nA USD$500 Home office setup if you’re a remote employee.\n\nGlobal Gatherings - We believe in the power of in-person connection and offer opportunities to engage with colleagues at company-wide offsites.\n\nCulture - We All Shape It\nAs part of a rapidly scaling start-up, you will be instrumental in shaping our culture.\nAre you interested in finding out more about our culture?
